Farmingville, NY – On October 19, Councilwoman Valerie M. Cartright (fourth from right) was on-hand to celebrate the grand re-opening of Paws of War, located at 127-6 Smithtown Blvd. in Nesconset. The expanded location includes a dog wash station and private offices. Paws of War trains and places shelter dogs to serve and provide independence to our U.S. military veterans that suffer from the emotional effects of war. In turn, each veteran can experience the therapeutic and unconditional love only a companion animal can bring. There is no cost to any veteran for the service dogs that they raise, train and place. Visit Paw of War for more information.
Councilwoman Cartright said, “I am always happy to support Paws of War and I know they will continue to be successful with their newly renovated offices. The men and women who are part of the organization do outstanding work to help our veterans in need. I urge everyone to visit their website and consider how you can volunteer or otherwise support this very worthy cause.”
